In the Tamil enclave of King’s Circle, 80-year-old Ram Ashraya is beloved by southern families for its spectacular dosas, idli (spongy, round, fermented rice cake) and uttapa (pancake with toppings). Filter coffee is strong and flavoursome. The menu changes daily. It’s just outside Matunga Rd train station’s east exit and draws Mumbaikars of all persuasions.
